Inom fältet för högre utbildning sker nu stora förändringar, både vad ­gäller ­pedagogiska metoder och tekniska lösningar men också i form av en ökad ­konkurrens mellan lärosäten. Förändringar som avspeglar sig i arkitekturen genom en omfattande pågående och planerad framtida byggnation av lärandemiljöer. I de vägledande campusplaner och dokument som lärosäten och fastighetsägare gemensamt tar fra

Purpose: The purpose and aim with this research was to understand how brands successfully can co-opt a social movement; specifically feminism, as part of their brand building-strategies. The phenomenon was explored by comparing one successful case, Libresse’s ‘RedFit’ campaign, with a relatively the less successful case; that is, H&M’s ‘Ladylike’ campaign. Methodology: This study takes a rela

This study examines the ambiguous relationship between increased democratic influence between elections and democratic equality. Initiatives to strengthen the possibilities for citizens to affect public policy are being suggested by the 2014 Commission on Democracy in order to decrease democratic inequality, but what consequences can be expected from such initiatives? This study investigates the m

Medling är ett snabbt tvistlösningsförfarande med förhållandevis låga kostnader. En hög andel av alla medlingar som företas resulterar i överenskommelser som i stor utsträckning efterlevs av parterna. Mot bakgrund av medlingens förtjänster som tvistlösningsmetod undersöker uppsatsen, med fokus på kommersiella tvister, på vilka sätt medling kan främjas och i vilken utsträckning det är rättfärdigat Mediation, or conciliation, is a fast dispute resolution method with relatively low costs. A large proportion of all mediation procedures appear to result in successful agreements that are complied with by the parties. While noting the merits of mediation as a dispute resolution method, this thesis investigates, with a focus on commercial disputes, in which ways mediation can be promoted and to wh

The aim of this thesis is to analyze and determine the meaning of the term “Beneficial Owner”, in the model treaty of the OECD and therefore its meaning in bilateral negotiated treaties based on the model treaty. The term’s legacy and application is presented. While the meaning and application of the term is being presented, its application as, as well as border to, anti-abuse rules are examined.

I anslutning till 2015 års flyktingvåg uppenbarades oklarheter i rättsläget med avseende på det svenska rättssystemets tillhandahållande av ställföreträdare för ensamkommande barn. Personer som är under 18 år betraktas enligt svensk rätt som omyndiga vilket innebär att barn saknar förmåga att med rättsligt bindande verkan fatta beslut i personliga angelägenheter och råda över sin egendom. EnsamkomIn 2015 Sweden received an unexpected number of refugees which revealed several flaws within the domestic regulations regarding representation of unaccompanied children. According to swedish legislation persons under the age of 18 lack the legal capacity to make decisions in personal and financial matters. Unaccompanied children who arrive in Sweden require a guardian who can look after the child’

Children working in mining related activities are not uncommon in Sierra Leone. Their involvement has become a matter of increasing global attention and significant measures have been taken at national and international levels to combat the problem. However its prevalence gives reasons for concern. In the case of Sierra Leone it has been argued that there has been a failure to carry out an analysi

This study tracks the use of the term “ensamkommande” (unaccompanied minors) in five major Swedish newspapers news/reportive articles over the months July 2014 to June 2016, using quantitative content analysis in order to detect shifts in the media frame preferences. The results are set in a context where examples of the recurring article frames are studied, using media framing theory, studying di

Labour law is facing a challenge in the era of globalisation. Due to new conditions in the landscape of employment relations, the legal field needs to reformulate its legitimacy in order to not risk becoming obsolete. This thesis seeks to contribute to the discussion on the need to reinvigorate labour law with a focus on labour rights protection of third country migrant workers. The thesis analyse

Vi lever idag i ett informationssamhälle, information är mer lättillgänglig än någonsin. I Sverige lever vi också i en trend av urbanisering, i dagsläget bor 85% av svenskarna i tätorter (SCB, 2015). Det är i ljuset av denna samhällsutveckling som konceptet om en smart, uppkopplad och hållbar stad har växt fram. Uppsatsen undersöker svenska kommuners uppfattning kring nytta och användbarhet av sma

Det har länge talats om stadskärnor i kris i media och bland experter. Traditionella funktioner i stadskärnor såsom handel har flyttats till externa köpcentrum och internet. Det finns många olika perspektiv och teorier kring hur städer kan bli mer attraktiva och locka tillbaka människor till städerna, men många av dem saknar ett helhetsperspektiv på vad som utgör stadskärnornas unika konkurrensför

Urinary Incontinence is a problem for many people which can give rise to both psychological and social issues. To their aid there are a range of incontinence products available in retail today. A customer concern is however possible malodor formation. Studies have shown that both urine and the bacterial flora can contribute to malodor but the impact of microbial behavior in incontinence products o

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) as a form of contract farming are increasing in number across Sub-Saharan Africa; providing a potential solution to the threat of food insecurity and stimulant of economic growth. Yet, the perceived extent to which the operations of contract-farming PPPs include original smallholders – inclusivity - is often questioned. There is currently little evidence of the e

I och med införandet av den tillfälliga lagen har en asylsökandes skyddsstatus fått ökad betydelse. Exempelvis har flyktingar rätt till familjeåterförening medan alternativt skyddsbehövande som regel inte har det. Sverige har bland annat kritiserats av UNHCR för att få personer, vid en internationell jämförelse, beviljas flyktingstatus i landet. Detta arbete undersöker domar från migrationsdomstoAsylum seekers’ protection status has become more important since the implementation of the temporary migration law in Sweden, inter alia as people with refugee status have a right to family reunification while people with subsidiary protection do not. Sweden has several times been criticised, including by the UNHCR, as few people, in an international comparison, are granted refugee status in the

Regulatory competition is a competitive process through which the jurisdictionss within a decentralized area develops and adapts to the market demands of that area. EU’s Single market is such decentralized area in the field of company legislation. Any EU citizen may establish a company in any Member State and as a consequence a race between the different national jurisdictions in the EU can emerge

Brottslig culpa och begreppet oaktsamhet har varit ett ämne för intensiv diskussion och skiftande behandling. Under nittonhundratalets början undergick straffrätten stora förändringar och olika tankar och idéer fanns kring straff och dess funktion i samhället och inom dessa teoribildningar fördes ett stort rättsvetenskapligt arbete. Inom ramarna för detta är det intressant att se hur begreppet oakCriminal negligence and the concept of negligence have been a topic for intense discussion and shifting treatment. During the early twentieth century, criminal law underwent major changes, and different thoughts and ideas were presented regarding punishment and its function in society, and within these theories a great work of legal science was conducted. Within this framework, it is interesting t

At one time in our lives, we will stay in a hospital. Whether it is in birth, death or sickness, hospital architecture will play a fundamental role in our lives. The costs of healthcare on society are huge and will rise as the world faces aging populations and an increased reliance on modern medicine. Architects will play a vital role in creating health care design that is sustainable, promotes he

I svensk rätt finns det – utöver en omfattande skattelagstiftning – två huvudsakliga angreppssätt mot sådant skatteundandragande som vanligen benämns skatteflykt. Dessa består av lagen mot skatteflykt samt en praxisutvecklad princip om att beskattning ska ske på grundval av rättshandlingarnas verkliga innebörd – även kallad genomsynsmetoden. På det skatterättsliga området råder ett absolut föreskrSwedish tax law contains – apart from a vast and detailed tax legislation – two main approaches against the type of tax minimization commonly referred to as tax evasion. These are the General Anti-Avoidance Rule (GAAR) and the case law based principle that taxation should be based on the true implications of a transaction. According to the Swedish constitution, taxation may only be conducted if th

Den 13 mars 2014 beslutade regeringen att ge en särskild utredare i uppdrag att se över beskattningen vid ägarskiften i fåmansföretag. Genom ett tilläggsdirektiv kom utredningen även att se över de särskilda skattereglerna för delägare i fåmansföretag. Den 8 juni 2017 utfärdades lagrådsremissen Förändrade skatteregler för delägare i fåmansföretag. Lagrådsremissen innehåller ett flertal förslag somOn March 13th 2014, the government decided to give a special commission the task of reviewing the tax on owner shifts in closely held corporations (Fåmansföretag). By an additional directive the commission came to evaluate the special tax rules for Fåmansföretag, the 3:12-rules, as well. On June 8th 2017, the council on legislation referral was presented as Changed taxation rules for shareholders

In World Duty Free Group [2016], the CJEU clarified that it has developed two methods in its case law for the purpose of assessing selectivity in tax measures: the three-step approach and the Gibraltar method. The three-step approach may be used when the tax measure in question takes the form of a tax advantage that derogates from an ordinary tax system. In turn, the Gibraltar method may be used w
